Correct Quiz Responses in Red
Feb 11, 2021

I work for a company who has a distinct red color for branding. It looks beautiful as a theme color in Rise 360 except for one main problem: Red is implied and associated an incorrect response for quiz questions. However, correct responses in Rise show up as a red checkmark. This confuses users and was rejected by my stakeholders. So, I have to go to a green or blue for the theme. Is there anyway to change this or does Articulate have anything on their roadmap to change the color for quizzes to something more standard and intuitive while allowing authors to keep the theme color to brand standards?

Hi there, Dan! It sounds like having the ability to customize the colors used for correct and incorrect quiz answers would be really helpful for your team! I'd be happy to share that idea as a feature request. While that isn't on our roadmap right now, we'll let you know if we make any changes that will help.
I second that feature request! Blue or green for correct answers and red for incorrect makes way more sense.
Hope to see it soon!

I'll +1 that request. It's not intuitive and goes against color associations (green is good, red is bad/danger).
+1 that request. The check marks and crosses to mark the correct and incorrect answers are not seen by our learners / they are difficult to identify.
Any work around or anything? We are also getting this feedback.
Hi Michelle!
Thanks for reaching out! It sounds like having the ability to customize the colors used for correct/incorrect quiz answers would really benefit you and your team! I've included your voice in the Feature Report and we'll update this thread if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.
While I don't have any workaround to offer at this time, I would defer this question to our helpful community who may be able to offer some suggestions!
+1 - Our learners are really frustrated with this. For many English is a second language and when they see red, they think they've gotten the answer wrong.
+ 1, this is a very basic and highly needed UI adjustment also for us.
+1, it is not intuitive to have correct answers in red.
+1, it is highly counter-intuitive and considerably reduces the pedagogical value of the tool in this case. We need it now !
Now. my Team is not happy with it.
Good news, you can add this theme component to override the colors. By editing the color variables at the very top you can change the correct and incorrect colors, here's how it works:
Phil - would you mind sharing your css override file?
sure here's the link, I'm cataloging all my theme components here:

Thank you😊

Phil, would you mind if I sent you my zipped file and you can tell me what I'm doing wrong?
